Description

Bionic dragonfly flapping wing aircraft
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of aircrafts, and particularly relates to a bionic dragonfly flapping-wing aircraft.
Background
A flapping wing aircraft is an aircraft that mimics the flying attitude of bats, birds, or insects and is based on a biomimetic design. The aircraft has the advantages of high flight efficiency, good concealment, strong maneuverability, capability of flexibly changing the flight state and the like, and can rapidly realize the high-difficulty actions which are difficult to realize in the traditional flight modes such as sharp turning, diving and the like compared with the two traditional flight modes of the fixed wing and the rotor aircraft, so that the aircraft has more advantages when flying in a narrow space. Under the condition of low Reynolds number, the flapping wing flight mode can obtain higher pneumatic efficiency and energy utilization rate than the traditional flight mode, and the flapping wing aircraft has wide application prospect in the military and civil fields.
At present, typical mechanisms such as a single-crank double-rocker, a crank sliding block, a crank sliding groove, a double-crank double-rocker, a space crank connecting rod and the like are generally adopted as a flapping mechanism of the bionic flapping-wing aircraft, so that only single-section up-down flapping can be realized, and the degree of freedom of the flapping wings of most of the flapping-wing aircraft in space is not high, so that the aerodynamic performance of the flapping-wing aircraft is poor, and the flapping wings can provide insufficient lift. Furthermore, control of flapping wing aircraft mainly relies on the tails such as: the control of the vertical tail wing, the V-shaped wing and the bird-like tail wing is relatively poor, and the feedback time is long, so that the flight attitude of the aircraft cannot be adjusted in time.

At this time, the front main motor 411 transmits low-custom high-torque power to the left front flapping mechanism 60 and the right front flapping mechanism 61 through the speed reducing mechanism because of the symmetrical synchronicity of the movements of the left front flapping mechanism 60 and the right front flapping mechanism 61; the description will be continued taking the movement of the left front flapping mechanism 60 as an example: one end of the left front crankshaft 601 is connected with the other end of the corresponding support of the bottom plate bracket 1 in a shaft way and is fixedly connected with the left front output gear 615; therefore, the left front output gear 615 transmits power to the left front crankshaft 601 fixedly connected with the left front output gear through the square hole on the boss to drive the left front crankshaft 601 to rotate, the left front crankshaft 601 drives the left front wing root connecting rod 602 and the left front wing root rotating block 603 to rotate around the left front ball head support 807, and certain relative sliding occurs between the left front wing root connecting rod 602 and the left front wing root rotating block 603 in the process; the root of the left front wing root connecting rod 602 is provided with an elastic reset mechanism 10, the left front wing root connecting rod 602 is kept in a recovery state at any time and plays a certain limiting role, and the rotation of the left front wing root connecting rod 602 drives the left flapping wing 21 connected with the left front wing root connecting rod to flap up and down; whereby up-and-down flapping of the left front flapping wing 21 can be achieved. During flight, the forward and backward rotation of the left front steering motor 802 in the left front steering mechanism 80 is controlled to drive the left front slider 806 in the screw structure to move forward or backward along the left front linear guide rail 808, so that the left front wing root rotating block 603 connected with the left front slider 806 and the left front wing root connecting rod 602 connected with the left front wing root rotating block 603 in a sliding manner are driven (pushed or pulled) to rotate forward or backward through the left front ball head support 807 positioned on the left front slider 806, and in the process, the left front wing root connecting rod and the left front wing root rotating block also slide relatively.
The left front flapping wing 21 and the right front flapping wing 22 can generate certain telescopic movement in the expanding direction in the flapping process, and by utilizing the characteristic, the flapping wing can be provided with larger lifting force so that the flapping wing aircraft has better aerodynamic performance, and only the forward and backward rotation of the front main motor 411 is controlled to enable the double wings to do stretching movement and shrinking movement in the downward flapping process and upward flapping process; the flapping resistance of the flapping wing is smaller, so that the overall lifting force of the flapping wing is improved.
Based on bionics, the flapping frequency of the bionic dragonfly flapping wing aircraft is designed to be 20-25Hz, the reduction ratio of a reduction gear set is set to be 50:1, a power supply mode of a 3S (11.1V) lithium battery and a front main motor 411 with 5400-6700kv value are selected, and the theoretical flapping frequency can be met under the condition of sufficient electric quantity of a power supply system.
In conclusion, the flapping wing aircraft simulates the flapping frequency of a dragonfly wing and a motion mode of multiple degrees of freedom in reality, and is a novel bionic dragonfly flapping wing aircraft based on dragonfly flight characteristics and a pneumatic theory. The ornithopter can realize various movement modes; because the driving sources of the front and rear transmission mechanisms of the flapping wing aircraft are different, the flapping phase difference and the flapping frequency between the front and rear flapping wings can be controlled to finish pitching movement, and the double wings of the bionic dragonfly flapping wing aircraft have no phase difference or little phase difference and can realize a gliding or diving state as shown in figure 12 when the double wings do not flap; the flapping wings can generate passive deformation when flapping up and down to generate propelling force vertical to the front edge of the flapping wings, and the front and rear steering mechanisms can independently control the flapping wings connected with the front and rear steering mechanisms to perform glancing movement; therefore, the sweep angles of the 2 front flapping wings are adjusted through the front steering mechanism to generate a certain yaw moment so that the aircraft can finish small-amplitude yaw movement as shown in figure 13; similarly, the forward and backward 2 pairs of flapping-wing turning motions are controlled to generate larger yaw moment so as to finish the large-amplitude sharp turning motion as shown in figure 14. When the double-wing flapping is performed, if the front and rear steering mechanisms continuously reciprocate, the front and rear flapping wings can spatially complete the up and down flapping of the front and rear sweeps, the front and rear flapping wings can passively twist within a certain range in the flapping wing movement process, and when the left and right steering mechanisms continuously reciprocate asymmetrically, the flapping wing aircraft can generate yaw moment; the wing tip motion track of the ornithopter can realize an 8-shaped or oval track, and can simulate the real flight actions (pitching, yawing, diving, jerking and the like) of the dragonfly well, so that a good bionic effect is achieved.
Because the innovation of the invention is mainly the innovation of the structure of the flapping wing air vehicle, the control system of the flapping wing air vehicle is not included in the invention, and a visual system can be additionally arranged if the technology allows, and the information obtained by the visual system is processed and then fed back to the control system; and the surrounding environment is recorded in real time, and meanwhile, the obstacles are avoided, so that perfect closed-loop control is realized.
